5 speed 300sd m110 flywheel clutch opitions help!
My issue is I converted my 79 300sd to A 5 speed manual from a 300d using an m110 280se flywheel the problem is the stock m110 clutch won't hold the torque from the modified om617 turbo in 3Rd 4th or 5th grears, can anyone recommend a good clutch upgrade, the clutch diameter is 228mm at the moment I'm thinking a g wagon or t1 van clutch which is also 228mm might work can anyone confirm or deny if this will work before splash cash on a new clutch?

That's a real bugger about it slipping though, I have a brand new stock 215mm one behind my souped up 617 so I better start looking for a better setup too :/
280GE came with a 240mm clutch however but you'd have to swap/machine the flywheel and if you were going to that length you'd be best off going for a proper performance clutch.
1978 300D, 373,000km... OM617.912 with a Holset HX30W, 7.5mm IP, 711.113 5 speed (project car, 7 years off the road and counting ;/)
1977 250 270,000km (parts car)
1977 300D (ex 280) 500,000km
1981 240D 498,000
1975 HJ45 ???,000
2001 2.8TD Rodeo 4x2 - 456,000 - DD
Not 100% sure but those clutches/pressure plates are the same to my knowledge.

Yes I think they might actually be the same, I took the clutch out today it was glazed I think there may have been some oil contamination when the clutch plate was in storage, so now I'm hoping a brand new standard clutch along with a resurfaced flywheel will do the job properly, fingers crossed.

How about this singlemass flywheel and 240mm clutch.

Yup pretty sure that's the 280GE setup I mentioned, I could do with that actually
